[otp_ctrl] Refine escalation behavior in life cycle partition Previously, all OTP partitions could be moved into escalation mode externally via `escalate_en_i`. This can cause issues with the escalation action sequencing, since "wipe secrets" (`escalate_en_i`) is usually triggered a couple of cycles before triggering the "life cycle state scrap" action to allow for clearing of local state. If the OTP life cycle partition can be moved into escalation state via `escalate_en_i`, this separation is no longer possible, since this action would immediately scrap the life cycle state as well. Therefore, the `escalate_en_i` signal is disconnected from the OTP life cycle partition. This should not have any major impact on security, since 1) glitching of that partition can still be detected immediately, and the partition responds by scrapping the life cycle state. 2) the "life cycle state scrap" escalation action implemented inside the life cycle controller takes care of invalidating the life cycle state and all life cycle signal outputs as part of the escalation protocol.

OpenTitan is an open source silicon Root of Trust (RoT) project. OpenTitan will make the silicon RoT design and implementation more transparent, trustworthy, and secure for enterprises, platform providers, and chip manufacturers. OpenTitan is administered by lowRISC CIC as a collaborative project to produce high quality, open IP for instantiation as a full-featured product. See the OpenTitan site and OpenTitan docs for more information about the project.
This repository contains hardware, software and utilities written as part of the OpenTitan project. It is structured as monolithic repository, or “monorepo”, where all components live in one repository. It exists to enable collaboration across partners participating in the OpenTitan project.
The project contains comprehensive documentation of all IPs and tools. You can access it online at docs.opentitan.org.
